Boby

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

BOBY FOR ADOPTION Boby is a 2-year-old male mixed-breed Shepherd who arrived at the shelter after being abandoned. His previous family tells us that he tends to run away and isn’t comfortable around young children. Boby is described as a gentle, affectionate dog who is protective of his loved ones. Playful and very close to his family, he’ll love sharing wonderful moments with his future adopters. He’s also house-trained. Like many protective dogs, you’ll need to be careful when introducing him to strangers and continue his training to help him thrive in his daily life. House with a perfectly fenced garden. No young children—only respectful teenagers allowed. Females are okay; cats are not. Boby is looking for a patient, committed, and aware family—one that understands his needs and is ready to provide him with a stable, secure, and loving home environment.

About Boby

What life with Boby looks like

Boby is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Compiègne in Compiègne.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇫🇷Adopting from France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Boby, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Boby?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA Compiègne handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Boby on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Boby if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA Compiègne will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Boby already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Boby isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with SPA Compiègne early rather than rehoming privately; they know Boby and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (FR). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
